GRIT's application to list its ordinary shares on the premium listing segment of the Official List and to trade on the London Stock Exchange's main market became effective today.

About Mineral Mountain and the Holy Terror Project

Mineral Mountain, through its wholly owned subsidiary Mineral Mountain Resources (SD) Inc., is focused on the advance exploration and, if warranted, development of its most advanced asset, the Holy Terror Project located in the Keystone Mining district in the southeastern part of the Black Hills of South Dakota, U.S.A. The Holy Terror Project is centered along the southwestern extension of the Homestake Gold Trend and covers approximately 5000 acres straddling a major gold bearing structural corridor measuring about 15 km in strike length and 1.5 km in width. The Keystone District contains historic, turn of the century gold mines, eight of which occur within the Holy Terror Project. Production of these mines came from early Proterozoic gold mineralization associated with iron formation, and shear zones similar to the deposits at the western hemisphere's deepest and richest mine, the Homestake gold mine, which, over 120 consecutive years produced 40 million ounces of gold in the northern Black Hills. The Holy Terror Project is very well located near Rapid City where it can be easily accessed by a network of roads and has hydro-electricity and modern internet services to the drill site. As well, the area has a skilled labor force and can be explored year round at low cost. According to a recent poll released by CNBC, South Dakota was ranked first overall in the United States for conducting business in 2013, has low political risk and a jurisdiction that embraces mineral development.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors, MINERAL MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.
